The Prids Biography

The Prids are a band from Portland, Oregon. The quartet's music can be categorized as a blend of indie pop and post-punk, influenced by Sonic Youth, Built to Spill, (solo) Morrissey, My Bloody Valentine and Wire.

Founded in Saint Joseph, Missouri in 1995 by David Frederickson and Mistina Keith, they continued to develop in Omaha and Lincoln, Nebraska, where they befriended and were influenced by 1980s post-punk band For Against, whose guitarist Harry Dingman III created the artwork for their EP Duracraft, before relocating to Portland in November 1999. The Prids follow a strong DIY ethic similar to that of Fugazi, including the home recording of several of their records. In addition, former Prids drummer Lee Zeman screenprints all of the band's T-shirts and stickers and the band books their own tours, prints their own buttons, and drives their own van around the country.
